The folks from A Bad Lip Reading are back at it again, and this time they have their sights set on the 2022 NFL. This one dropped a little over a week ago, but hey, better late than never. Enjoy!
After a light day on Wednesday, the Texans put the pads back on for an intense Thursday practice. One of the newest Texans, CJ Gardner-Johnson has drawn a lot of attention at camp. Which should be expected when a Super Bowl champion safety joins the team.
Earlier in the week, things got a little heated between Gardner-Johnson and tight end Cade Stover, which made headlines. Unfortunately for CJ, he's in the news for a very different reason on Thursday.
According to multiple reports, Gardner-Johnson is dealing with a right leg injury, and was carted off the field.
Next steps: testing, MRI expected for #Texans safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson who is currently inside @The_Greenbrier Sports Performance Center being examined by team medical personnel @KPRC2 https://t.co/PDRwOMACNe https://t.co/9CZXqApWDA

The extent of the injury won't be known until more test are taken. But based on the vibes, this does not sound good.
Head coach DeMeco Ryans gave an update after practice.

The Texans are now suddenly thin at the safety position if Gardner-Johnson misses significant time. Safety Jaylen Reed is already out with an injury, per Aaron Wilson" target="_blank">Aaron Wilson, and Jimmie Ward is recovering from foot surgery, and dealing with some legal troubles.
